Sole Survivor by Candice Wright

There’s a murderer on the loose.
One who kills without hesitation and remorse.
When Rue Anderson, the killer’s tenth victim, is found in a shallow grave at a children’s park, it sends shockwaves through the local community and sparks a media frenzy.
But there is a difference between Rue and the nine victims that came before her.
Rue survived.
Left with a scar on her soul and her memory in tatters,
Rue finds herself drawn to Valen Ward, the dark and enigmatic man who reminds her there is more to life than just existing.
But Rue’s future is as uncertain as her past.
And though Valen holds her close, he might also be the reason Rue’s world was torn apart.
Every secret has the power to break her, but nothing proves to be more fatal than the truth.
Not when she’s the sole survivor.
And he’s the prime suspect.
